Aidan08, you are the right person to say. Btw, any good news?

Hi lui, my son got rejected by CIS, he will go to ESF in the coming August.

Yes, I am the right person to say...since my friend's son and my son both got chance for the interview (Reception 2013). Me myself, is graduated from a local U, my hub is graduated from an Australian U (which is so called a top U in Australia), my friend and her hub are also graudated from local U. So I believe that they don't really concern about which U the parents come from. Btw, my friend and I both filled in the questionair in Chinese. I do think they like bilingual family, since I heard a case that the kid's parents are both graduated from Oxbridge but they hadn't got a chance for interview, and the parents are both Chinese but they can only speak English, so as the kid. And I do think background of the kid is not the most important factor, kid's performance in the interview is crucial.

我都聽過SIS好谷，我有個朋友話佢哋中文、數學同LS基本上一樣程度，英文高一至兩級......多功課，係好學術的學校，學生一般都要出去補習.....同一般國際學校唔同。又無話好定唔好，一定有家長會鍾意，但如果係鍾意國際學校無咁大讀書壓力、放學放假多D時間玩的家長，我諗要三思...(我唔係SIS家長，都係聽人講，SIS家長現身說法會好d！)

我都識CIS家長，相比SIS，我估CIS起碼在小學階段應該唔係好谷的，都係著重全人發展多d，玩的時間都好多，但課程規劃得好好，呢個係一個有三個小朋友在CIS讀的家長話我知的。
